Re: Why did Boba Fett put himself next to Luke in Rotj?

Bossk is a goofy dinosaur but he's no idiot, and neither was Kast, or Dr. Evazan, or any of the other people Boba took out. And in general, just the way he finds people and tracks them down is sort of Sherlockian. Think of how smart Han is (in my opinion, at least) and how many times Boba has managed to find him. Plus there are several times in the Bounty Hunter wars (i.e. the many space battles) in which he demonstrates his intellectuality. (Sorry I can't offer more specific examples, but it's too early in the morning for me.)

Jango could outsmart Kast and maybe Evazan I don't know much about him all i know is half his face is messed up and he's wanted on 12 systems. And Bossk may not have been THAT stupid but let's say he has average intelligence. Outsmarting an average person isn't such a great accomplishment......Jango could outsmart Bossk easy.

Draco I will only agree if your toe-nail can operate a jetpack. Not saying it can't, just setting a standard. In my mind Jango isn't really a genius but he is definately not stupid. And if your only calling Jango stupid because he is not as smart as Boba, then 98% of the Star Wars population are now officially brain-dead.

ps. This has definately veered off topic, maybe this should be a new thread.

Back to an earlier topic, there was no reason for Boba to want to stop Han from escaping. If I am not mistaken he was already paid (twice) for Han before they went out on the sail barge. Meaning he could have played it a little safer since his job was technically to portect Jabba. I remember him only staying because Jabba offered him a body guard type job while Luke was still a threat.

Draco, for shame! Why are you always so bitter about Jango?

I am a traditionalist, and and am strongly against anything coming from the prequels.

Actually, my toe-nail can operate a jetpack. One of the main reasons that I find Jango idiotic is because he used two wrist-rockets on two guards who were right next to each other. They were also running away, and therefor not a threat. He could have used one wrist rocket, or two blaster bolts.

He did not kill Montross when he had the chance. He trusted the cloners. Under his leadership the Mandalorians were almost completely decimated. You could describe the last one as a series of mistakes, but the first one that I gave in another post was shere stupidity.

Re: Why did Boba Fett put himself next to Luke in Rotj?

maybe he was proving himself brave by jumpin into the battle .....you think he would have learned about that from his fatheras death..... or maybe hes not the type to stand around when stuffs goin on and we all do remember that darth vader wanted luke captured so he couldd be turned...maybe fett was gettin in the chance at a reward
